I don't believe that decline in prices in the market is 100% due to bounty hunters. You know that the tokens for hunter bounties are only a few% and that more bonuses are obtained by investors, some coins will experience price drops before distribution for bounty hunters and it's not possible if bounty will pay bounty hunter with ethereum
does team have to take from funds that have been collected in ico?
What about development funds?
Topic: All about bounty payments and its effect to the project - page 12. (Read 2094 times)
I was once an investor had few gains to some ICO/crowdsale but made many losses so I decided to stop participating in ICO instead I do bounties and buy it thru exchanges from bounty hunters dumping it.
I know for a fact that most of you know this situation and are guilty of it, price tends to tank due to bounty hunters selling their share of tokens for cheap. I think its better to pay hunters in eth or other alts rather than risking the price of their token or coin in that way they could also help their investors and boost confidence to their future and their project. Well for me a falling price is a mark of a failing project "ICO's"
No ICO is ever going to genuinely pay the bounty hunters with ETH. They would rather pay with their own freely created tokens so as not to path with any profit realized from the ICO token sales. They are all greedy and much more interested in what they cash out from investors during the ICO than the survival of the project itself.

Bounty payments are usually 1-2% so it can not seriously impact the price of the coin long term. Many projects do not pay hunters at once rather split the payment in several parts to protect the price of the coin.
They say it is to protect the price of the coin but in reality it is a scam to not pay your workers in full. They do it because they can dump more coins at higher prices themselves.

Most ICO coin prices fell due to lower market demand. or the project doesn't work properly. Therefore, it is wise to choose ICO. And it is impossible for a bounty hunter to cause a dump, because the bounty allocation is only a little of the total supply of coins sold.
Now there are many projects that pay in Ethereum. I think that's good. Thus, bounty hunters do not receive wrappers, but real payment for their work, and the project team retains its tokens in order to provide them with real value.
Buying a coin on the exchange after the ICO is better than during a public sale. Because access to the stock exchange gives a small guarantee that the team is working on the project.
Bounty hunters will also prefer to get pay in Ethereum or any other popular listed coin or token but most project developers won't do this because not all developers really care about the price of the token once they get money from the ico
It depends on a project itself. If it is a really good one and people are investing a lot of money into it, plus this project collects its hardcap, the possibility of a dump is pretty low. But unfortunately in the most cases bounty hunters have a huge affect on a starting price.
It is not the problem of the bounty hunters if a project doesn't even create enough demand to absorb the bounties that are being sold in the market.
then the fact is that investors are currently less interested in crypto especially ICO and that makes projects difficult to develop.
so the bounty hunter can't be blamed on this case.
Okay but if a team is fake or stops developing it isn't surprising that a dump occurs.
there's many thread about this, hunter said the cause of token dump and should be paid with either ETH or BTC.
i agree for hunter to be paid on ETH or BTC but at the same time i'm also thinking it's normal to be paid in ICO token we promoted since we decide to promote the project didn't it mean that we believe that the project will succeeded? if we didn't believe the project will succeeded in the end then what's the point we promote it.
also i believe real hunter not gonna sell their hard earned token in cheap.

and also i refuse to believe that hunter was the one that caused token to be dumped on market. what can a measly 1% do to the whole market?also i believe real hunter not gonna sell their hard earned token in cheap.
they could also help their investors and boost confidence to their future and their project. Well for me a falling price is a mark of a failing project "ICO's"
if project want to help investor first they should give bonus reasonably for their early investor and pre sale participant. 
Bounty payments is the most common problem on the project, sometimes the price is go down because of so many dumpers. And most of the investors that invested at 30 to 50 percent discount is also do dumping thier token so the most common thing when the coin or token get listed is it will really drop like 100 to 10 percent this is really the worst case on ico.
Falling prices are a mark of a failed project? how come all the top coins in the market are falling and that does not mean that they are all failed project, that is bad observation all coins suffered from falling prices and all coins can suffer it one time or another, but they will get back up because of the platform attach to the coin.
I think of the developers has strong support the price will still be standing strong ,I look very well before joining any bounty this days and most times I prefer keeping my bounty payouts so I join good bounties only
This is one of the reasons I prefer getting paid I ETH or bitcoin ,no matter how good the project is it will take time to recover to better price ,dumping can't be controlled ,the only way is to get paid in other digital currency
oh, depending on what project ... there are projects paying at ETH, there are projects redeeming their tokens from the bounty, there are also projects with strong support that do not allow the market to be lowered .. you should not blame the bountists, but they lower the price, since most earn it for life .. but the project should also have a well thought out strategy so that their coin does not go down to zero because the percentage of bounty is usually miserable and if this amount of coins can seriously shake the market, then accordingly the coin without strong support and is not worth attention.
Keep away your words about bounty participants make price is drop and down, how come with under 2% coin allocation could make price dump, how ever owner and team have more than 50% allocation and make price is down.
I really understand the situation. I am also aware of that. Indeed, many bounty hunters will definitely throw their tokens at a very cheap price. But, actually we cannot blame the bounty hunter. because all of that is the decision of each person. But it's a pity to throw the token below the price of ico.
good for you because you still manage to recieve something from an ico bounty while majority of the bounty hunters are always got scammed and they dont know how to choose a legit one . whats your secret by the way ? can you share to us so that we can also earn a coin that has a value . its okay if the coins value is small but atleast you know to yourself that its not a scam coin .
The only secret is researching more and more. Spend some of your time before joining a bounty campaign. Read their ANN, if possible whitepaper and what about the bounty manager. For example, if Lauda, Hhampuz create a ANN bounty for any of the project, although it's not guaranteed, I would take it as legit because they will definitely do their side of homework before start working with a project. I think its better to pay hunters in eth or other alts rather than risking the price of their token or coin in that way they could also help their investors and boost confidence to their future and their project.
I agree with this that its better if they pay the bounty hunters thru ETH or other trusted coins but there is a risk in part of the team. What if their ICO doesn't reached the soft cap? Or there are no investors who invested? This is why the bounty hunters are being paid thru their own tokens to lessen the risk instead of paying ETH or other coins. I'm a bounty hunter and what I'm doing is to sell around 60-70% of my total tokens and will hold the remaining for around 6 months to 1 year hoping the price of the coin will increase.

I think you've learned from your experienced and you make the good decision after not quite successful in participating on an ico. But if you participate some bounty campaign jist make sure that the project is a trusted project and has the potential for being successful.
